This simple mix resembles the herbed triple-cream cheese from France but is easy to make and less expensive. Make at least two days ahead to allow herbs to rehydrate and flavors to meld.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese
  • 1/4 pound butter or margarine
  • 1 tablespoon dried herb mix (e.g. fines herbes or herbs de provence)

How To Make easy boursin cheese spread

  • Step 1
    Bring cheese and butter or margarine to room temperature.
  • Step 2
    Thoroughly combine all ingredients. A mixer or food processor may be used. At this point, it may be shaped into a ball or log and wrapped with plastic wrap, packed in a parchment-lined mold, or put directly into the bowl in which it will be served.
  • Step 3
    Refrigerate 48 hours or more to allow the herbs to rehydrate and the flavors to meld.
  • Step 4
    Serve with crackers or melba toasts as an appetizer. It is also good on a cold roast beef sandwich.
